Abstract
An information technology is presented with the help of which facial expressions of human emotional states have been analyzed. Facial areas are revealed whose mimic changes are distinctive features for modeling and recognizing visual manifestations of emotional states. Eleven mimic expressions of emotional states are identified whose combinations describe visual manifestations of emotions. The results obtained by the proposed information technology almost coincide with the results obtained by experts.
